0SCUSS1oN:
The City's Action Plan is a comprehensive summary of the major housing and community
development activities programs and proposed expenditures for the use of federal grant funds in
the amount of $9,278,851.00 from the United States Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) for the program year beginning October 1, 2012 and ending September 30,
2013 from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships
Program (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) and Housing Opportunities for Persons with
AIDS (HOPWA) grant programs. This year's Action Plan also summarizes the use of program
income resulting from activities using prior years' CDBG and HOME funds. The purpose of these
grant funds is to primarily benefit low and moderate income City residents, with ESG funds
primarily benefiting homeless persons and HOPWA funds primarily benefiting persons with
HIV/AIDS.
A 30-day public comment period on the City's proposed Action Plan was held from June 25, 2012
to July 25, 2012. Any comments will be maintained by the Housing and Economic Development
Department in accordance with federal regulations. This public hearing on the City's Action Plan
will be the first public hearing for the HUD-required citizen participation process. A second public
hearing is proposed for August 7, 2012 at which time the City Council is scheduled to approve the
Action Plan. The City's Action Plan must be submitted to HUD by August 16, 2012.
In addition, two public hearings were held on July 16, 2012 at 9:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. for citizens
to provide comment on the proposed lists of neighborhood streets eligible for reconstruction using
CDBG funds. The Transportation and Public Works Department prepared a list of priority streets in
CDBG-eligible areas. The streets selected for reconstruction were based on the comments
provided at the public hearings. A complete list of the streets is attached and will be included in the
Action Plan.
The allocations in the draft Action Plan available during the public comment period were based on
funding estimates available at that time. The amounts set out below reflect the allocations from
HLID at the time of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C). The allocations are not yet final
and if the amounts increase, Staff will bring forward another M&C to commit the additional funds.
Staff developed recommendations for the allocation of the estimated funding from HUD and
presented them to the Community Development Council (CDC) on June 4, 2012. A summary of
the CDC's funding recommendations is provided below in Tables 1, 2, and 3 and a spreadsheet of
all specific funding recommendations is attached.
